Dragosum 10'x8' Patio Retractable Awnings UV Protection Sun Shade Window Door Shelter with Manual Crank Handle,Waterproof Fabric and Aluminum Frame for Outdoor, Deck, Yard, Balcony (Dark Grey)

The awning is easy to install and looks great. Quality parts and easy to follow instructions. Just what I needed to keep the sun off our rear porch steps and door.

Great product.Difficult to understand the construction instructions.Looks great once installed.

Update: I revised the review as I have found a work-around to mounting on wooden wall. I installed a length of 2" x 8" x 10' cut to 103" long. Screwed the 2 x 8 into the studs, then installed the mounting brackets on the 2 x 8. Now I'm able to retract the awning completely. The directions still suck but once you have assembled one, it's easy doing another. I have purchase two more 8' x 7' awnings and plan on buying a 10' x 8' unit. These a relatively well constructed and easy to extend and retract.I wanted this centered over a window but the mounting brackets must be situated at the end of the torsion bar for the awning to be fully retracted. I had to move the mounting brackets inward to match the wall studs, thus I am unable to fully retract the awning. Also, the instructions are terrible, especially the directions to adjust the downward angle of the canopy.

had a little trouble with installation we had to get better screws to hold to outside or would have fallen, Can’t keep open during rain or it will get too heavy. which kind of sucks but it’s nice when sun is out. We got it for back porch as there is no covering and we smoke outside not in house and it’s horrible willthe sun beating on you back here so it’s helped a lot with that but the rain is still a problem.

This is probably one of the worst decisions I made, especially considering the price on the complexity of installation. But more importantly, the belt quality, and the materials used. The only exception is the canvas that seemed decent. Everything else is very poor quality, and the articulations are approximate at best. The quality of the metal is very low considering the price I paid and the expected use especially when opened. It’s just dangles down after an hour or two of being open.

First off, everyone who left reviews were absolutely right, the directions SUCK!! Why they can't assemble the thing in the factory then ship it is beyond me!! After a little bit of aggravation & redoing a couple parts we got it hung. Protects our granite & grill perfectly, in fact right after we hung it & rolled it out, it started raining, so it was a perfect test. Don't have it all the way out in the pictures. No rain build up, the rain rolls perfectly off the awning. It was worth the aggravation, we recommend it!

This has made a wonderful addition to our patio where there was previously no shade ! I can now sit out there comfortably! Easy installation also !
